Because I'm poor: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/protection-film-kit-with-cleaning-cloth-for-iphone-4-2-piece-set-42340 is great! Have no problems at all with it.
The best ones are the antiglare/matte ones, mainly for their texture.
Does the matte finish mess up the retina display clarity though?
hands down power support. when I tell people theres a film on my iphone they dont believe it. so thin and reliable
Does it scratch easily? I don't want a ****** looking protector on my phone, lol. Also, fingerprints?
I just bought the Graft Concepts case and want a really good protector with it as it is more of a high-end case.
PS: Anyone have a free shipping code?

Power Support is BY FAR the best out there, and it does resist scratches pretty well.

Personally I've tried them all, and I agree that power support and sgp are the best in terms of clarity. However, they're a huge pain to install correctly, and from my experience the sgp collected a ton of little nicks and superficial scratches.
For my money, I went with phantomskinz, which is a "wet" install (sgp and power support are dry). I'd say it's maybe 95% the clarity of the sgp and power support, but is much much easier to install. The texture feels pretty close to the screen itself, and there is only the slightest bit of "orange peel" when held at an angle.
Stay away from zagg and bestskinsever for your screen.

If you are looking at pictures of the white phone, the second one is the proximity sensor... it's the same for the normal iPhone 4, you just can't see it on the black ones...
Supposedly there are issues with the white phones if there isn't a second cutout there though...
seem everybody getting the powersupport...
anywhere to get it for a discount?
will the iphone 4 att version work on Att 4s ?

It's called Oleophobic, comes on the phone from Apple.
In the form of a coating, with wonderful tactile feedback why cover it?
I've never experienced scratches, and it doesn't obscure the view.
My phones survived being dropped face down (that's why the word is accident)
And it's still absolutely flawless, pretty amazing really

Proxy sensor shouldn't be affected by a clear screen protector on a white iPhone 4.

You're lucky your screen hasn't scratched, mine has.
But I can't justify spending a large amount of money on a clear cover when I can get on that does the job perfectly for less than $2
